The Fall Of Apple's Maps

Ever since the introduction of the Apple iPhone 5, the entire world has been complaining about the inaccuracies of their new Apple Maps Navigation application. Just a few months ago, Apple CEO Tim Cook even had to publicly apologize for how terrible Apple Maps was.

Things even got so bad, that the Australian Police even had to warn their citizens to no longer use Apple Maps after Police had to respond to several incidents of “Life Threatning” situations after Apple Maps led drivers deep into dangerous realms of Murray Sunset National Park.

Victoria State police said they answered 5 calls where drivers were stranded, and some were without food and water for 45 hours and had to travel through rough and dangerous terrain before they could get phone reception.  Those stranded were apparently looking for the city of Mildura, located about 70 kilometers away.

It’s no wonder with such a severe announcement by any National Government… that Apple finally decided to bring Google Maps back to their iOS 6 operating system, which is now available at their App Store.
